Adams: Eternal Lord, how faint and small

Thursday, May 19, 2016 Feast of Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury, 988 Meditation:O LORD, you have searched me and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O LORD. —Psalm 139:1-4 (NIV) Quotation: Eternal Lord, how faint and smallOur greatest, strongest thoughts must seemTo Thee, who overseest all,And leads us through Life’s shallow stream.

How tangled are our straightest ways;How dimly flares our brightest star;How earthbound is our highest praiseTo Thee, who sees us as we are.
